Chapter 1950 Don’t Go to the Ground because of Profit
Even in the future electronic age, the number of people coming to eastern Guangdong to work has not decreased.
Skilled workers generally stay here, which also maintains the strong competitiveness of eastern Guangdong's electronic products and clothing industries.
It is precisely because of them that many factories that moved abroad had to move back.
Foreign labor is very cheap, but low education levels, inability to adapt to high-intensity work, and quality and yield issues have deeply troubled European and American companies.
After much deliberation, it seems that only China, the world's factory, is most suitable for their industrial development.
Even though it's a bit more expensive, overall it's still worth it.
"Don't be anxious about this matter. The economy in Xiangjiang has just recovered, so we can't react so quickly." Yin Jun said, "Besides, it's not like people in Xiangjiang can't see clearly. Apart from me and Mr. Huo, I heard that Mr. Hu Are you already talking about business with Yuedong?"
Mr. Hu is Hu Yinxiang, the Xiangjiang businessman who will invest the most in eastern Guangdong in the future.
With more than 30 years of hard work in eastern Guangdong, his Hopewell Industrial assets exceed at least 500 billion yuan, and his wealth exceeds 30 billion US dollars. He is an absolutely low-key super rich man.
"Yes, what he talked about with us was infrastructure construction, mainly highways." Zhu Pingfan said, "Last year, a highway started to be built in Shanghai and Hainan. The length is only a few dozen kilometers, but it costs a lot. No. Thinking that Mr. Hu has a bigger appetite, the seven expressways he designed not only connect Guangdong, Nanwan, and Fashan, but also include Zhongshan and other places, with a total length of no less than 1,000 kilometers!"
Yin Jun was also a little stunned when he heard this.
Good guy.
No wonder Hu Yinxiang’s business in Xiangjiang has almost come to a standstill, which has not affected his status as a super rich man at all.
Not to mention anything else, how much wealth will these seven highways with a total length of more than 1,000 kilometers bring him?
Based on Hua's charging authority for about 30 years in the future, and with the prosperity and traffic congestion of eastern Guangdong, it will be easy to earn a profit of 5 to 6 billion yuan every year.
The most frightening thing is that Hu Yinxiang is not limited to these seven expressways. It seems that in 2020, Hopewell Group is still building expressways in South China.
Of course, this is also because Hu Yinxiang has good vision and courage.
Before the advent of high-speed rail, highways were second only to real estate as a major infrastructure project.
It not only involves dozens of industries, but also countless human resources, as well as a huge supply and integration of various materials, which can greatly stimulate various employment in surrounding cities.
After it is repaired, it will benefit many cities along the highway, making the connections between cities closer and the exchange of various materials and personnel more convenient.
Doesn’t the old man have a saying?
“If you want to be rich, build roads first.”
But building roads is not a simple matter. Although the benefits are very large, the investment is also very high.
It involves all aspects. In this era, based on the cost price of 20 million yuan per kilometer, Hu Yinxiang has to spend 20 billion yuan on expressways.
In other words, the official price would be HK$50 billion.
Because it involves such a large cooperation, all official bills are paid, and he can't exchange it on the black market yet, so he can only take out the money honestly.
It is definitely impossible to take out HK$50 billion in one go.
But if the payment is divided into three to five years, it will definitely be a huge burden for Hu Yinxiang.
In Yin Jun's memory, the expressways in eastern Guangdong began to develop rapidly in the 1990s. Perhaps due to lack of funds, Hu Yinxiang only built two or three in the 1980s, and the rest were built in the 1990s.
By the 1990s, it was much easier for Hong Kong businessmen to obtain loans.
But no matter how you put it, Hu Yinxiang's courage is really admirable.
If Mainland regrets it, all his money will be wasted!
"If Mr. Yin is interested, you can also invest in these highways." Zhu Pingfan saw Yin Jun's look and said by the way, "As long as it is a project that you think is feasible, we can discuss it."
"That's right!" Rui Chengzhi answered from the side, "Mr. Yin, you have a mobile phone... well, that is, a mobile phone, a toy factory, and the world's largest computer manufacturer... As long as these industries can be moved to eastern Guangdong, You can choose any place, and the preferential conditions will definitely be no worse than any other place, and they can be adjusted at any time!”
That is to say, they are worried about reaching brother provinces, otherwise Rui Chengzhi would like to say that those products such as walkman and radio cassette player can also be brought to eastern Guangdong.
Yin Jun smiled unconsciously, "When doing business, you have to take your time. If you invest too much all at once, and we have no plan and are not fully prepared, it is naturally not good."
"Can……"
Rui Chengzhi wanted to argue for a few more words, but Zhu Pingfan interrupted him directly, "Chengzhi, what Mr. Yin said makes sense. Let's get the instant noodle factory settled first so that he can see us. If Guangdong is sincere and can make money, then we can continue to talk about future business! Otherwise, everything you say will be in vain!"
Yin Jun smiled slightly and did not answer the call.
He didn't mean what Zhu Pingfan meant, but so far, the Kirin Group's focus is still on the development of Hong Kong and abroad, and the mainland. It has been a huge success to complete the Kirin Commercial Plaza in these years.
You know, as long as the overall Kirin Commercial Plaza is completed, then the Kirin Group will have the backbone in the mainland, and it will be invincible in whatever it develops.
In the 1990s, these factories in eastern Guangdong were just rough processing factories, OEMs, etc. Yin Jun did not plan to move these industries to the mainland, at least not now.
Because in Xiangjiang, Yin Jun still needs to unite more people and tie more people's interests to the Qilin Group, so that he can have a great say in Xiangjiang.
After all, in Yin Jun's design, the mainland and Xiangjiang are the foundations of the Kirin Group!
Yin Jun must not give up Xiangjiang just because of the various conveniences and cheapness in the mainland. This would be something that would get poked in the back.
After all, young people's prosperity lies in Hong Kong. Once they become prosperous, it would be ungrateful to abandon Hong Kong.
Speaking of the expensive labor problem in Xiangjiang, this is actually not a big problem.
Because the various products made by Yin Jun in Xiangjiang are all high value-added.
For example, computers have a gross profit margin of over 40%.
Toys are even better, directly over 55%.
The lowest one is of course Qilin Construction Company, with a gross profit margin of less than 20%.
This is for Yin Jun's sake, and because he has taken on many municipal projects and his own company's business, otherwise the pressure would be even lower.
Yin Jun knew that after 1997, Xiangjiang's construction industry entered a period of slow development.
The massive construction projects of the 1980s and 1990s will no longer be seen, and Hong Kong does not need tens of thousands of construction workers.
But it doesn't matter.
As Australia's iron ore continues to develop and grow, more and more workers are needed there, which can fully absorb such 40,000 to 50,000 people.
In fact, with the discovery of the Christmas Creek Iron Mine at the beginning of last year, Yin Jun asked Shen Ben to be active in Western Australia and has accelerated the pace of immigration.
From April last year to May this year, there were a total of 27,000 immigrant skilled workers, setting a record.
For these immigrants, Shen Ben and Wei Li not only spent a lot of money in Western Australia, but also spent more than 30 million US dollars in the capital of Australia.
All kinds of people from all walks of life need to be taken care of, at least so that they have an excuse to explain to the people.
In order to further legalize these skilled workers, Weili has opened Wankang Company to Perth, the capital of Western Australia.
Just like the rumors, Wankang Company has received great praise from the people as soon as it appeared. Various convenient projects, active handling of various affairs, and various high-quality services have all been enjoyed by the stupid Western Australians. What does it mean to be treated like God?
Under this situation, the plan applied by Wankang Company to Western Australia to "request to recruit more Xiangjiang workers due to insufficient personnel" was naturally recognized by the public.
However, Qilin Group and the Western Australian government, including the Australian government, still concealed the total number of immigrants, and Western Australia also made manipulations to move many applicants to 1983, or even 1982.
That way, the data doesn't look so scary.
But with the discovery of the Duanyun Mining Area, Western Australia has also begun to be wary. They are also worried that after the development of these iron mines begins, the large number of immigrants from Xiangjiang will affect the employment opportunities of local people.
Even though Wei Li and Shen Ben had given repeated assurances, they still didn't believe it.
Ordinary people in Western Australia are a bit stupid, but these people in the government are very smart. No matter how good Wankang Company is, or how respectful Qilin Mining Company is, it is impossible for them to trust them completely.
They did not think that Yin Jun wanted to let Chinese workers control the entire iron ore mining area, but they were worried that Qilin Mining Company would hire a large number of Xiangjiang immigrants in order to save costs.
Moreover, when it comes to hard work, there is no need to compare Australians and Xiangjiang people.
As a result, in May of this year, Western Australia's immigration policy has been tightened a lot. It is estimated that 10,000 people will be approved to immigrate in the next year, which is considered good.
In fact, the current number of immigrants has far exceeded Yin Jun's expectations.
Because the number of workers exceeds 100,000, and including their families, the number of employees and family members belonging to Wankang Company and Qilin Mining Company will reach as many as 280,000 in the next five years.
This is five times the total number of immigrants from Hong Kong to Australia in the previous life!
With so many workers, even if five or six of the super large iron mines in Yin Jun's memory are excavated, there is no need to worry about any manpower problems.
There are also railways, highways, ports, etc. along the way. Chinese workers are able to achieve achievements that astonish Australians.
But then again, who worries about having too many people at their disposal?
Especially in a land like Western Australia, which is vast and sparsely populated, with a total population of less than 5 million, Yin Jun is very ambitious.
Even after three to five years, the Western Australian government realized that too many people in Hong Kong would affect their local structure, and it was already too late.
This group of workers and their families who have arrived in Western Australia, with two or three hundred thousand votes, will make good use of their electoral system to let them know what the will of the people is and cannot be violated!
Therefore, even if the construction industry is in recession, this group of workers in Xiangjiang will eventually be able to settle in Western Australia and work in Yin Jun's Qilin Mining Company and Wankang Company without worrying about their future.
You know, the minimum wage in Australia is very high, not bad at all compared to Xiangjiang. When they come to Western Australia, their quality of life will definitely not drop.
Then there are hundreds of thousands of Xiangjiang people here, and there is nothing strange about their living customs.
With such an arrangement, how could Yin Jun abandon workers' factories in Xiangjiang on a large scale?
